For more details, refer to the online documentation +included in this distribution. The documentation is also available online: + + http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/index.html + +The Qt version 5.9 series is binary compatible with the 5.8.x series. +Applications compiled for 5.8 will continue to run with 5.9. + +Some of the changes listed in this file include issue tracking numbers +corresponding to tasks in the Qt Bug Tracker: + + https://bugreports.qt.io/ + +Each of these identifiers can be entered in the bug tracker to obtain more +information about a particular change. + +**************************************************************************** +* Library * +**************************************************************************** + +QtBluetooth +----------- + + - Added various improvements to the existing Bluetooth examples. + - Added various documentation improvements. + - Added new heartrate-game example replacing the old heartlistener example. + +QtNfc +----- + + - Introduced QNearFieldTarget::maxCommandLength() to make it possible to + check the maximum supported length for commands. + - Introduced QNearFieldTarget::(set)keepConnection() permitting control over + the connection behavior. If this flag is set the NFC device does not disconnect + automatically after reading an NFC message. QNearFieldTarget::disconnect() + was added to permit manual separation of the connection. This feature is currently + only implemented on Android. + +**************************************************************************** +* Platform Specific Changes * +**************************************************************************** + +Android +------- + + - Added support for QNearFieldTarget::sendCommand(). + - Fixed crash due to references leak in QBluetoothDeviceDiscoveryAgent on Android. + - Added more detailed GATT error reporting. + - [QTBUG-58085] Fixed unnecessarily dangerous right request for ACCESS_COURSE_LOCATION + during BTLE scanning on Android platforms below version 23. + - Prevented nil exception if reading of a descriptor failed during discovery. + - [QTBUG-58056] Fixed not reported characteristic if system failed to read its value + during the service discovery. + - [QTBUG-53483] Added support for BTLE peripheral on Android. + - [QTBUG-56078] Improved likelyhood that BluetoothGatt.connectGatt() succeeds. This addresses + the GATT_ERROR 133 (0x85) problem on Android v23+ devices. There is no fix available + on older Android versions. + - [QTBUG-57646] Fixed problems when using QtNfc when running as a service. + - [QTBUG-59343] Fixed crash on restart of NFC applications. + - [QTBUG-59455] Fixed detection of all NFC tags even non-NDEF tags. + - [QTBUG-59917] Added workaround for BLUETOOTH_PRIVILEGED security exception when + attempting to read a BTLE HID service. + +iOS/macOS +--------- + + - Fixed missing behavior whereby QLowEnergyController::disconnectFromDevice() + did not stop advertisement. + - [QTBUG-58080] Changed priority of advertised BTLE device name. Qt prefers the + device name as set by the advertisement data over the GAP name. + +Linux/BlueZ +----------- + + - [QTBUG-52692] Prevented stalling of Linux central BTLE implementation. + - Fixed continued advertisement of peripheral data once + QLowEnergyController::disconnectFromDevice() was called. Public documentation + was added to publically state the behavior. + - [QTBUG-57417] Fixed duplicated QBluetoothLocalAdapter:deviceConnected() and + deviceDisconnected() signal emissions if the local device has several Bluetooth adapter. + - [QTBUG-59392] Ensured that pairing passkey and pincode are truly random. + - [QTBUG-59754] Ensured that QLowEnergyController::connected() is emitted on peripheral. + Previously the signal was never emitted. + +WinRT +----- + + - [QTBUG-37779] Added support for Classic Bluetooth on WinRT. |
